Labor Day designates the end of summer and, most significantly, the beginning of football season! Actually, it was first celebrated in 1882 and declared a holiday in 1894 in honor of the achievements and dedication of all those who contribute to the health of our nation through their hard work.
Who more contributes to the health and welfare of our society than responsible, hard-working dads? Where would we be without them?
We can see the problems that arise when a dad is not involved in his child’s life. So we would like to take this opportunity to recognize those weary warriors who toil, serve and steadfastly hang in there through thick and thin to create and preserve a safe and supportive environment for their children.
The labor movement
Responsible fathers – those who realize and understand their role – personify Labor Day every day. Their tasks never change nor diminish, and as guardians of their loved ones, they are always on duty.
